What is a "scoop"?

A scoop is a news story that is reported before others, giving a particular news outlet or journalist exclusive coverage of an event or topic. It is often considered a significant achievement in journalism, as it provides the public with information that has not yet been widely reported. A scoop can involve breaking news, uncovering hidden facts, or offering a unique perspective on an issue. Journalists and media organizations compete to secure scoops, as they can attract attention, increase credibility, and enhance the reputation of the reporters and the publication.

ευφημισμός

dysphemism
What is a "euphemism"?

A euphemism is a word or phrase used to replace a term that may be considered harsh, unpleasant, or offensive. It aims to soften the impact of the original term and make it more acceptable in conversation. For example, instead of saying "die," one might say "pass away." Euphemisms are often used in sensitive topics such as death, bodily functions, or discomforting situations. While they can help to convey a message in a gentler way, they may also obscure the truth or make communication less direct.
